How to decode Woody v2 / Flatty sensor payloads
Decode the LoRaWAN payloads of Tector Woody v2 and Flatty sensors yourself: payload format, unit conversions, status codes, worked examples, and ready-to-use decoders.
Tector Woody v2 and Tector Flatty sensors share the same LoRaWAN payload format, so a single decoder handles both devices.
The complete decoding guide is available as a PDF download below. It covers:
- The payload format (Protocol Buffers) and the full uplink message schema
- Field reference and unit conversions (resistance, temperature, humidity, battery)
- Special resistance status values and how to interpret them
- How payload content varies with signal quality and after a device restart
- Worked byte-level examples and ready-to-use decoders (protoc and Python)
- Downlink commands for configuring the device
